O memoriale mortis Domini!<br>
panis vivus, vitam praestans homini!<br>
praesta meae menti de te vivere<br>
et te illi semper dulce sapere. <br>
<br>
Pie pellicane, Iesu Domine,<br>
me immundum munda tuo sanguine;<br>
cuius una stilla salvum facere<br>
totum mundum quit ab omni scelere.<br>
<br>
Te cum revelata cernam facie,<br>
visu tandem laetus tuae gloriae;<br>
Patri, tibi laudes et Spiritui,<br>
dicam beatorum iunctus coetui.<br>
Amen.<br>
 
 
{{Translation|English}}
 
O memorial of my Saviour dying,<br>
Living Bread, that gives life to man;<br>
make my soul, its life from Thee supplying,<br>
taste Thy sweetness, as on earth it can.<br>
<br>
Deign, O Jesus, Pelican of heaven,<br>
me, a sinner, in Thy Blood to lave,<br>
to a single drop of which is given<br>
all the world from all its sin to save.<br>
 
Contemplating, Lord, Thy hidden presence,<br>
grant me what I thirst for and implore,<br>
in the revelation of Thy essence<br>
to behold Thy glory evermore.<br>
Amen.<br>
